# `quick` - test a single HTTP endpoint

```sh
artillery quick [options] <target>
```

This command allows you to send some requests to a single endpoint, without writing a test script.

The `quick` command only works to test HTTP services. You cannot run quick tests for other services, such as Socket.IO or WebSockets.

Run a quick test which generates 20 virtual users, each sending 100 GET requests to the specified target:

```sh
artillery quick \
    --count 20 \
    --num 100 \
    https://service-foo.preprod.acmecorp.digital/items
